Agata Wieczorek

MYP Art teacher

Teaching is one of the earliest dreams I can remember. Following it, I gained my BA in teaching and MA in the English Language and Literature. I started teaching in Poland when I was still a university student and I’ve loved it ever since.

Initially a secondary school teacher in the IB Diploma Programme and the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP), I gradually moved towards primary teaching in the IB Primary Years Programme (PYP), which I find one of my most rewarding professional experiences.

Having worked in a variety of roles at six IB world schools in five countries prior to GIS, I have developed multiple perspectives on education. In the meantime, I also became a happy mother of Maciek, which added yet another dimension to my teaching. In my twenty fourth year in the profession, I still believe I was born to be a teacher and to inspire some of my students to choose this unique profession for themselves.

I strive to make curiosity, passion and commitment shared attitudes in my classroom.

Out of school, I enjoy long runs, challenging hikes, literature, and art in its various forms. I also love learning new languages.
